Reviews of Hotel Runavík 3 stars

Great location, free parking

The door at the end of the corridor, near my room, was loudly closed very late at night and early morning every day. Staff also loudly closed this door and the door to a staff/maintenance room further along the corridor. Both of these things, as well as a loud staff area outside at the back of the hotel, made sleep very difficult. Being asked for full payment on check-in isn't the most welcoming first impression either. Hard to recommend and I wouldn't stay here again purely for the difficulties I had in sleeping.

Loved everything at this hotel. Perfect location in the middle of the islands (30-45 min drive to most destinations), great breakfast, lovely staff, cozy bed, lots of shops, supermarkets and restaurants in 200-500 m on the street. Absolutely loved it!

This would be easily a 4 star hotel in most of the European countries. Absolutely love it here. The bed is perfect for resting after a long day of hiking, the breakfast has it all, it is situated on a street which haa everything you wish for: numerous restaurants, pizza/kebab, stores for shopping, supermarkets and even a gas station. I decided to make this my “basecamp” for 5 out of 7 nights in Faroe and it was the best decision ever. Very easy to reach many islands from here (30-60 min drives) as it’s somewhat located in the middle of the country. This hotel had a huge positive impact on my Faroe adventure!

Very modern and very clean, excellent staff.

Limited restaurant menu but the food was good

Location convenient to bus stop and eating places in Runavik. Staff friendly when present.

1. Nobody at reception on arrival. As a consequence, I was unable to confirm whether or not breakfast was included in room price. In the event, I slept through to after 10am and missed breakfast the 1st night. 2. Restaurant was open the 1st night, but no meals could be served. Restaurant closed the 2nd night.

The breakfast was ok

It wasn’t clean enough and the rooms are very small!

We stayed here last year but wanted to stay longer this year as part of our honeymoon to experience more of the area. It didn't disappoint. The location is great, making it a cheaper alternative a short drive outside of the capital. The breakfast has a good offering with a few homemade pastries. The carrot French bread was a personal favourite for me and my wife. The hotel has a really nice and calm atmosphere with friendly staff. The restaurant has basic offering but gives an alternative to the other few restaurants in the vicinity.

The bathroom could be updated a bit more as the shower curtain can be annoying and doesn't stop the bathroom floor from getting wet during the shower.

Situated in quiet Runavík, a few hundred metres from the tunnel to go to Tórshavn, nice spacious room, very good pressure at the shower, excellent breakfast and extremely helpful staff, thank you very much for your hospitality and help (Annika and I don’t remember the name of the other lady). If we visit Faroe Islands again, we will definitely stay at Runavik hotel.

There’s nothing we didn’t like

The room is small, but this information is clearly stated in the listing. Friendly staff, good and varied breakfast.

Bathroom!!! Instead of a shower door, there’s a horrible, smelly curtain — after taking a shower, the entire bathroom is flooded. The bathroom itself is small and has an unpleasant smell. Also: no coffee from the espresso machine at breakfast (the machine is there, behind the bar, but not available to guests). The coffee from the thermos is awful. Too few lunch/dinner options in the restaurant — only four dishes available.

The breakfast is monotous. Each day is the same choice and the ketchup appears every second day. However it is tasty.

Good location and good facilities.

When you ask your room to get cleaned, this is how you get it cleaned and beds made, (photos attached) which is not acceptable. They didn’t even made the bed or washed the sink after emptying tea. First floor rooms windows are just next to parking and there is no privacy unless you close the curtain. Rest of the stay was good.

Rockstar parking, affordable meals, although a basic menu. Breakfast was great.

Breakfast did not include an espresso machine coffee.

A good hotel in a good location with excellent staff.

Nothing.

Very good hotel, very good breakfast and very nice staff!

not enough choice when comes to the diner options

Great and spacious room, view over the harbour, bright room

Only two courses on the menu in the restaurant in the evening

Very good breakfast. The location is great to travel to every point of the Faroe Islands. What we got for the price was exceptional!

Staff is friendly and helpful. Very good location.

The toilet is not properly cleaned; there are still some waste remnants. The sink seems to have drainage issues — water tends to accumulate and remain in the basin for quite a while.

Helpful staff, good location, comfortable
